Questions:
1. Why did you decide to come to college?
2. What made you pick Bloomsburg?
3. How did you choose your major?
4. What is the best part about lecture halls?
5. What is the worst part about lecture halls?
6. Do you use clickers in your lecture halls? If so, for what?
7. Do you prefer lecture halls or smaller classes?
Response1:
1. I decided to come to college because I want to have a good future with a stable job so I can support myself financially. Also, my dream is to become an elementary school teacher, something I cannot do without a degree.
2. I chose Bloomsburg because it was such a great distance from my house. It's not too far that I can't go home when needed and it's not too close that I still feel as if I'm at home. Also, I love the beautiful setting in the mountains and the adorable down town. Bloomsburg also was a great choice for my major and helping me earn a degree in early childhood education.
3. My major is early childhood education which I chose because I have always loved children and could not see myself doing anything else.
4. The best part of lecture halls is the opportunity to meet many new people each and every class.
5. The worst part about lecture halls is the lack of one-on-one attention. Professors in these classes will never lean their students names or give them any kind of individual attention which I believe is very unfortunate.
6. No, I do not use clickers in my lecture halls.
7. I prefer smaller classes.
Response2:
1. I decided to come to college to pursue a career in early childhood education.
2. I picked Bloomsburg because I knew a bunch of people who went and go here that had nothing but good things to say about it and how good the education program is.
3. I chose my major very easily because since I was a small kid, I loved playing school and always wanted to teach young children.
4. The best part of lecture halls is that the professor only teaches the most important topics and it is easier to find study groups.
5. The worst part about lectures is that it is hard to concentrate with other students sleeping, eating, on their laptops, or texting. And, I would rather get to know the professor and have them know me on a more personal level.
6. I do not use a clicker.
7. I prefer small classes better because of how personal and interactive discussions become. They also become more in depth and conversed between the entire room. I feel more comfortable asking questions in a smaller setting, but do get stressed more that I have a greater chance to be called on.
From my interviews I gathered that everyone has they're own personal opinions on their education, but mostly everyone has the same feel towards college. Specifically with lecture halls there are similar positives and negatives which will help with my research for the clue project.
